The OpenAI AI agent will be launched very soon

OpenAI is about to launch its own autonomous artificial intelligence agent, designed to control computers and perform tasks independently. Known as “Operator”, the new system from the ChatGPT company will be introduced in January as a research and development tool, according to Bloomberg. Other companies in the sector, such as Anthropic and Google, are already making progress in this area and have introduced their own AI agents, capable of taking control of your browser or even your entire PC.

Operator marks a change in the development of AI, being an agent capable of actively interacting with computer interfaces, beyond simple text and image processing. According to Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, agents represent the next big breakthrough in this field, and he was optimistic in stating that we will see “increasingly better models.”

Additionally, Kevin Weil, product director at OpenAI, anticipated just a month ago that 2025 will be the year when “agentic systems” will consolidate. AI labs need to monetize their advancements as soon as possible, with autonomous agents being the potential answer to that need. Operator has the potential to become the company’s next big success, taking a step forward in interaction with advanced AI systems.
